Recognising acts of bravery by bestowing awards on those who risk their lives to save others.

Donate

The Royal Humane Society works to a very limited budget. The Society's Councillors gladly give of their time in an honorary capacity. The very modest revenue derived from contributions is spent exclusively on the administrative costs of the Society's charter "to reward (or rather recognise) human bravery when saving or endeavouring to save life". The Society has been fulfilling its charter since 1877.

If you would like to contribute to the Society's endeavours, the address is:

Contributions are gratefully acknowledged in the Society's Annual Report and on our website.
